Cheap And Cheerful Italian

With a beautiful view of Phra Sumen Fort, a small Italian eatery named SUN STREET PANINI has recently opened its doors to join the constantly evolving dining scene on Phra Atit Road, in the Banglamphu area. While finding inexpensive spaghetti, etc. in the vicinity of Khao San Road shouldn’t prove too difficult, it’s more often than not the quality that’s missing. This quaint bistro however, seems to be a welcoming exception. By making most of his dishes—including crafting sausages from scratch—the Albanian born, but Tuscany bred, chef SPARTAK ‘LUCA’ GJONI follows his home country’s philosophy and puts his focus on the quality of the ingredients. Definitely try the lasagna with duck sauce, the gnocchi, or any of the paninis, and treat yourself with freshly baked apple cake or tiramisu afterwards. Open daily (except Mondays) from noon till 10pm.
